Samoan fans have been handed down in many different designs as widely used objects of daily use. While many fans are equipped with a wooden handle, the handle here consists of the coconut leaf strips, which also form the fan leaf. The handle is also wrapped with hair to increase its strength.

Provenance
The object is part of a collection of objects that Otto Zembsch (1841-1911) donated to the museum in 1902. Zembsch, who represented the German Empire from 1884 to 1885 as Consul General in Korea and from 1886 to 1901 as Ambassador to Peru, had been acting Consul of the German Empire in Sāmoa since 1879. It is probable that the objects from Sāmoa were acquired in the period before 1884. Text: Ulrich Menter
